Pilates is a gentle, yet powerful, low impact exercise system which helps to improve muscle tone, strength, balance, posture and flexibility. Joseph Pilates stated that through his method of body conditioning, a unique trinity of a balanced body, mind and spirit may be achieved, followed by self-confidence.
Due to its strong focus on the mind/body connection, Pilates offers these benefits and more. On this course you will be introduced to the basics of Pilates and learn how to safely and confidently perform a comprehensive mat routine. No prior knowledge of Pilates is required to attend this course.
This course offers a perfect progression pathway if you have attended any of our health and wellbeing taster workshops in the past.
Please bring an exercise mat, together with a small towel or cushion. If you would like to borrow one of our exercise mats for the duration of each class, please inform the administration team.
There are no formal assessments for this course. The tutor will give regular feedback to help you improve.
